Trying to Get Pregnant

Newbie and introduction

Hi all,

I've been looking through the boards for the past few days as I am too trying to conceive. We have been trying for just over 6 months and no such luck. I am almost 33 and he is almost 40. I am doing the ovulation kit for 3 months by recommendation of my OBGYN, at that point if nothing, we will start other testing. I am getting so discouraged! This is my first time TTC and I had been on birth control since I was 19 and never thought I would have trouble getting pregnant but here I am. Any others out there about my age TTC? Any pointers/information that may be helpful?

    Welcome and GL!  I would suggest to start charting with Fertility Friend if you don't already do so.

    Welcome and good luck!  Learning to chart with fertility friend is the best advice I have.  I'm more aware of my cycles, so I'm able to ask more informed questions when I meet with my doctor.  Plus, I have all the data to show her which she appreciates as well!

    Welcome.  If you're not already, temping/charting is a great way to make sure you time sex for your ovulation.  OPKs are another tool to help pinpoint O.  Best of luck to you.
